#Maya is indestructible. After every person hating on her now has long gone to dust and been forgotten #Maya will still live in her poems.— Randall Gross (@Tarkloon) May 28, 2014
You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may tread me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I’ll rise. — #Maya
